[QUOTE="sable tireur, post: 2595296, member: 27307"] In reality, you can nearly accomplish all of this with just your .308 Win. and custom, high BC hunting bullet. But, in search/thinking mode, you might consider the .300 RSAUM and something along the lines of the Badlands 175 gr. Bulldozer 2. 300 yard zero 500 yards up to and including moose 1,000 yards will handle whitetail and Mule deer All this with a 20" barrel. Exceeds everything you want without creating a ton of recoil or muzzle flash given the proper selection of powders. The .338 lacks excellent bullets in the lighter category (I know, I tried this before) and you already stated that 250 gr. and above is more than what is necessary. I do like the .325 WSM also. Enjoy the search! :) [/QUOTE]
